The north wind blowing from the outside of the border was getting tighter and tighter. The snow had fallen for a whole day and night. Several branches on the dead tree that were not broken by the snow stretched out into the dim sky like rugged bones, as if begging for something. A crow with his neck shrank a few times on the tree branch, as if he was suddenly shocked, and then spread his wings and flew away.

In Changchun Palace, Pei Qiantong had just had a pair of plum blossoms with a beautiful palace maid. Just when he was about to have a three-game sport, suddenly there was a rush of footsteps outside.

He heard the whispers of the personal soldiers outside the door, and shouted in dissatisfaction: "What's the matter of disturbing me!"

The captain of the personal soldiers, Pei Hu, said that he had reported a low voice outside: "Sir, it is Feng Yi's Wang Sima. It is said that Feng Yi suddenly discovered a large number of enemy cavalry and had already broken through the east gate and entered the city?"

Pei Qiantong sat up from the couch and pushed the charming palace maid who was still wrapped around his waist like a water snake and pushed Xu Yuan out of shock, "How is that possible?"

A sound of clothes in the room was full of clothes. After a while, Pei Qiantong pushed open the door barefoot with barefoot in his loose robe and picked up Wang Sima's collar: "Where did the troops come from? What flags are they used to do?"

Wang Sima is the brother of the concubine Pei Qiantong recently favored. With the relationship of this cheap brother-in-law, he relied on the Sima official in the military ranch. However, although he had this position, he actually never stayed in the ranch outside the city. It was for this reason that he escaped by chance. When the guards at the gate of the north city reported that they found war horses on the ranch outside the city, he did not dare to get up carelessly. However, because of this, the cavalry of the Xiliang entered the city from the east gate and was able to escape as soon as possible.

At this time, Wang Sima ran all the way here, already panting: "Sir, the thieves first raided the ranch in the north of the city, and then drove the horses from the ranch to the north of the city, while covering up their movements, but it attracted the attention of the soldiers guarding the city. Then the thieves suddenly attacked the East Gate and sent dead soldiers to sneak into the city to open the East Gate to lead the thieves into the city. Seeing this, the young man did not dare to delay and hurriedly sent a message to the adults."

"The bandits have entered the city?" Pei Qiantong's face changed drastically and asked tremblingly: "Do you know how many bandits are? Where did they come from?"

When Wang Sima heard the bandits entering the city, he was the first to escape to the south gate. He didn't know many of them, but he still told them all: "The thieves are all cavalrymen, and there is no specific number in the dark, at least thousands. According to small speculations, the bandits may have come from the north, and it seems that someone vaguely recognized them all Qiang cavalry in Xiliang."

"Qian cavalry, there is a Qiang cavalry among Xue Ju's Western Qin army. Could it be the Western Qin army?" Pei Qiantong felt his heartbeat uncontrollable.

Pei Hu was a fierce man. He shook his head and said, "Xue Ju and his son have been captured by Chen Pojun. How could thousands of Xiliang cavalry raided Fengyi? Could it be Chen Jun?"

"Yes, it must be the Chen army. It must be the Chen army who surrendered the Xiliang cavalry. They came here. pack up quickly and we will go to Linjin City immediately!" Although Pei Qiantong had been the General Yingyanglang of the Mansion Army during the Sui Dynasty and the leader of the Mansion, he was only based on his family background, and he was just a greedy person who was afraid of death. When he thought that it was possible that Chen army would come, he felt his legs were weak and weak, and he wanted to fly to Linjin Pass immediately.

"Sir, the bandits have arrived at Feng Yi, but there was no news from the surrounding cities before. According to the villain, it is estimated that a single army may have entered deeper, and the number of people cannot be large, with a maximum of three or five thousand people. Sir, the bandits have just arrived, and Feng Yi has not completely fallen. At this time, it is better to lead the troops back to Feng Yi and annihilate the bandits in one fell swoop. It must be a great achievement." Pei Hu, as Pei Qiantong's personal guard, was naturally a member of the Pei family's side tribe, and was also a soldier of battle on the battlefield. Facing the news of the enemy, he thought about not running away but fighting at the first time.

However, Pei Qiantong did not have the courage of Pei Hu. At this time, he was already scared. When he mentioned Chen Jun, he felt weak legs and limbs weak. He also followed Yu Wen and conquered Liaodong. He still remembered that time because of Yu Wen and Guimu's military merits, they attacked lightly and were besieged by the Goguryeo people. More than 80,000 people were surrounded by 80,000 people in a small valley, thinking that he would die. He would never forget that Chen Pojun later led a thousand cavalrymen to rescue. One thousand to fight for 80,000, how powerful it is.

"No, gather troops immediately and retreat to Linjin immediately." If Tongguan had not been farther away, Pei Qiantong would have retreated to Tongguan without hesitation.

Woo--

As soon as Pei Qiantong finished speaking, a rapid horn sounded in the distance.

The three of them changed their faces at the same time. They had already thought of an extremely terrible possibility that the Qiang soldier came to kill him.

A rapid alarm sound came from the outermost palace wall of Changchun Palace, which sounded extremely frightened. In the dark night, torches continued to move, and the lanterns used to send orders on the Diao Dou kept moving.

The messengers ran back and forth, and the officers shouted loudly, and their voices showed panic. The soldiers rushed out of the tent lined up in a row to adjust, and some soldiers stopped hesitantly, at a loss, and the scene was very panicked!

A rumbling sound appeared in the northwest direction!

"The army appeared in the northwest direction!"

"All of them are cavalry, and the number is unknown!"

"Sir, it's the Qiang soldiers in Xiliang, but they all hold the Chen army's flag, and the black flying eagle battle flag at the front!" A team of cavalrymen who were temporarily sent out to check rushed back to the city and shouted in panic.

As if confirming the scout's words, a black wave suddenly surged on the white snow outside the north gate of Changchun Palace.

"For the Empire!"

Ma Ning, the general of the Xiliang cavalry who was charging at the front line, shouted out the battle call before the attack.

"For the Empire!" Although more Xiliang cavalrymen were not clear about the meaning of the battle call, they did not prevent them from shouting loudly at the same time, and once again inspiring the fighting spirit throughout their bodies.

Pei Qian was ashamed and never expected that they would come so quickly. "Run!" He only had time to spit out a word, and no longer cared about his clothes, his bare feet and his hair were scattered, and he rushed towards the stable outside the hall.

Changchun Palace is a different palace. It was built for Yang Jian to use it for leisure. Because it was originally located in the Guanzhong Plain, very close to Chang'an, and twenty miles outside Fengyi City, there were Linjin and Tongguan guards, although the Changchun Palace was built with a magnificent building and jade buildings, the outer defense was only one palace wall that was only about three meters away.

The sudden arrival of the Western Liang cavalry and Pei Qiantong's escape without fighting made this gorgeous palace full of chaos at this time.

Some are gathering, some are already running away, and some soldiers and gangsters take the opportunity to enter the palace to rob everywhere at this time, and some are even raping beautiful palace ladies...

As he approached the palace wall, he saw a sparse group of soldiers gathered on the city wall. Ma Ning did not hesitate at all and shouted: "The whole army rushed me!"

Facing the palace walls, the Western Liang cavalry were not afraid at all and rushed straight on their horses.

The cavalry used their fierce riding skills, controlled the horse with both legs, let go of the reins, took the bow and held the arrow on the horse, and launched a cavalry shot directly at the defenders on the city.

There were 3,000 Pei Qiantong's subordinates in the Changchun Palace, plus one thousand guards in other palaces, which was 4,000. Ma Ning led a total of 5,000 cavalry in Xiliang, but nearly 2,000 people were left in Fengyi City, and at this time they were less than 3,000 people.

However, the momentum of the Western Liang cavalry is undoubtedly several times that of Xu Jun.

The Qiang people in Xiliang were extremely strong in cavalry and were riding and shooting in the charge. Although their accurate heads were much worse, such a fierce rain of arrows still suppressed the sparse defenders on the city so much that they could not raise their heads.

The distance of more than a hundred steps was approaching in an instant, and the Xiliang cavalry behind was still charging, but the cavalry in the front had already rushed to the city, and then skillfully controlled the war horses to gallop around the palace wall.

A group of Xiliang cavalry in the middle had already rushed to the city gate. Unlike other cavalrymen, they did not shoot arrows, but each of them held an iron hook with ropes tied to them.

"drink!"

They shouted loudly, and the cavalrymen who rushed to the wall all had already thrown the hooks in their hands.

Iron ropes were hooked on the palace wall at a height of meter. When the bows and arrows of other cavalrymen suppressed the wall, the cavalry had jumped off their horses and climbed desperately along the rope.

The palace wall was too short. The tall and powerful Xiliang cavalry almost rushed to the top of the wall with their scimitars. Some of the cavalry behind didn't even need ropes, and rushed directly under the wall, then stood on the horse's back, and jumped directly to the top of the city.

There were only a few hundred defenders on the wall, and they could not be lifted up under the suppression of the cavalry of the Xiliang cavalry. At this time, more Xiliang cavalry began to leap to the top of the city. The Xiliang cavalry was tall and skilled in cavalry, but they were even more weak in melee combat. In order to increase their combat power, the Xiliang cavalry who rushed to the city chose short-handed battle axes as melee weapons. The heavy-handed battle axes and their fierce figures were almost unstoppable on the wall.

"Bang!"

The iron chain of the suspension bridge was cut off by the battle axe and hit the moat heavily.

At this time, the Xuanwu Gate, the north gate of Changchun Palace, was finally taken down and slowly opened.

Seeing the city gate open, thousands of Xiliang cavalry were like seeing a peerless beauty stripped away, and screaming in shock.

Thousands of powerful Xiliang cavalry waving their spears and screaming wildly.

Qi Qi roared: "Kill!" The horse's hooves were thunder, and the stormy cavalry poured back into the city gate like a flood that broke the dam!

The subsequent troops were not at all chaotic or afraid, and the impact continued. They all rushed in in an instant, and a one-sided killing began!

Ma Ning climbed up to the Xuanwu Gate Tower and looked at the completely chaotic Changchun Palace, and finally had a smile on his face.

"Cut all the arrays that have been tried to gather and cut and disperse, and ignore the defeated soldiers who have already collapsed. Each battalion immediately occupied the important places and warehouses in the palace. In addition, the Xiongwu Battalion immediately guarded the Rangers within twenty miles of the circumference and intercepted and searched all the fleeing soldiers. No one left, and they were all caught in one place!"

"Get orders!"
Chapter completed!
